That's the problem. The package that installed that file is not installed.
Nor is the file in the location pkg complains about. Yet, it still
complains of a conflict and refuses to install the package I'm trying to
install.
For example, I tried to upgrade devel/oniguruma. It complained about a
conflict with oniguruma5, specifically /usr/local/bin/onig-config. That
file does not exist, nor is onigurum5 installed.
I wish there was a pkg command like rebuild-db that would iterate through
/var/db/pkg and create a valid local.sqlite file that registers the
packages currently existing on the server.

Is there a way to create a new local.sqlite file using the pkg command?
'pkg which /path/to/file' IIRC should reveal the registered package?
Perhaps best to address it that way.
